commit 8c936f9ea11ec4e35e288810a7503b5c841a355f upstream. When an iocg is in debt, its inuse weight is owned by debt handling and should stay at 1. This invariant was broken when determining the amount of surpluses at the beginning of donation calculation - when an iocg's hierarchical weight is too low, the iocg is excluded from donation calculation and its inuse is reset to its active regardless of its indebtedness, triggering warnings like the following: WARNING: CPU: 5 PID: 0 at block/blk-iocost.c:1416 iocg_kick_waitq+0x392/0x3a0 ... RIP: 0010:iocg_kick_waitq+0x392/0x3a0 Code: 00 00 be ff ff ff ff 48 89 4d a8 e8 98 b2 70 00 48 8b 4d a8 85 c0 0f 85 4a fe ff ff 0f 0b e9 43 fe ff ff 0f 0b e9 4d fe ff ff <0f> 0b e9 50 fe ff ff e8 a2 ae 70 00 66 90 0f 1f 44 00 00 55 48 89 RSP: 0018:ffffc90000200d08 EFLAGS: 00010016 ... <IRQ> ioc_timer_fn+0x2e0/0x1470 call_timer_fn+0xa1/0x2c0 ... As this happens only when an iocg's hierarchical weight is negligible, its impact likely is limited to triggering the warnings. Fix it by skipping resetting inuse of under-weighted debtors.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
